Set value of TextBox (in gallery) on button click

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by PDiracDelta 13

I have a Gallery with Items.
Each Item has a Textbox associated with it.
Users can modify the values in the Textbox and submit them.

After they click submit, I wish to (re)set the values in the Textbox to some default value x.

 

How can I do that? What is the command to set 'Textbox.Value' to 'x'?

    Hi @PDiracDelta 

     

    Set the Default Property of TextBox to Blank() or ""

    Thanks for responding. Two issues here:

    1. I wish to set the property automatically by clicking on a button, not by actually setting a value in the interface.

    2. TextBox has no Default property, only a Placeholder property. From what I learned, the Reset function exists but it only applies to objects with a Default property.

    I have found a workaround (for default value x and Gallery definition GALLERY_DEFINITION😞

    1. On the App screen, do: OnStart=Set(ValueResetter, false);
    2. On the Submit button, do: OnSelect=Set(ValueResetter, true); Set(ValueResetter, false);
    3. On the Gallery, do: Items=If(Not ValueResetter, GALLERY_DEFINITION)
    4. On the TextBox, do: Value=If(ValueResetter, x, x)
